Hello Mr. King

Chapter 396 - Buying a Durian

Chapter 396: Buying a Durian

“I promised to go to your school’s medical school to conduct a class in person,” said Song Mian faintly.

Yun Xiangxiang was speechless.

Nice try. Are you sure this is a compensation instead of taking advantage of the situation?

“I will never attend your class!” There was no way of tricking her.

“It doesn’t matter. I’ll just go and find you.” Song Mian smiled lightly.

The door sound made Yun Xiangxiang sit down immediately, glaring coldly at Song Mian. She did not want to trouble Hou Chengjue, so she pretended that she and Song Mian had similar interests, and they were chatting familiarly.

From the Film Festival to Hou Chengjue’s home, to being at her school to give lectures, Song Mian was misleading the incident step by step to make everyone feel their love was traceable.

She was a bit afraid if Song Mian would do anything earth-shattering when he goes to conduct his lecture.

“Teacher Hou, I heard just now that Professor Song is going to give lectures at our school. I wonder when it will be?” Please let it be October or later.

Hou Chengjue thought that she was finally interested in Song Mian, and he was feeling happy, “Little Song is a busy person, it is rare for him to take a leave. I already discussed it with the school. It just happens that the medical school has no classes on Friday afternoon, so it’s set for this Friday.”

Confronting Song Mian’s smiling eyes, she could only secretly grit her teeth. She took advantage of the table, concealing it, and stretched out her feet to kick him from under the table while replying, “What a pity, my Friday afternoon is packed with classes. I won’t be able to see Professor Song’s demeanor.”

“If you wish to go, you just have to ask for a leave.” If it were any other student, Hou Chengjue would not say this. However, taking leave has become a common occurrence for Yun Xiangxiang. It did not matter if she delayed a few months, let alone an afternoon.

“I’m not a student in the medical sector. Every minute is precious for such a talented person as Professor Song. It’s better if I don’t go and occupy a place in the name list.” Yun Xiangxiang rejected with rationale.

Hou Chengjue thought for a while and nodded. The school’s multimedia room could accommodate several classes of students, but there might be freshmen and students of other grades as well. There would not be enough space.

“Xiangxiang is just such a considerate girl.” Hou Chengjue praised Xiangxiang again to Song Mian.

“It’s time for dinner.” Fu Min brought out the soup at this time, and Yun Xiangxiang immediately got up and went to the kitchen to help.

Hou Chengjue and Song Mian also helped bring out the dishes, arrange cutlery, and serve rice...

Fu Min’s cooking was delicious. Although Yun Xiangxiang was taken care of by Song Mian every day, it was inevitable that her appetite would increase when she tries new delicacies.

After the meal, Yun Xiangxiang wanted to help Fu Min clean the dishes. This time Fu min did not refuse. Instead, when they were washing dishes, she told Yun Xiangxiang with her heart, “You are a smart child, you understand the intentions of your teacher and I. Song Mian is a good man. Your teacher and I guarantee that with our personalities.

We are also worried that you will be bullied in this circle. The Song Family has a good background. He set his mind on you. In the past, we could not find him easily. Now he would contact Old Hou from time to time. He has his mind on you.

We don’t intend to force you. We are just providing you with an opportunity to get to know each other. It depends on you whether this happens or not. However, don’t be shy to refuse him just because of your teacher and me.

Song Mian might be a child from a wealthy family, but he has none of those problems. If you don’t like him, he won’t force or keep pestering you.”

Fu Min struggled for a long time as well since Yun Xiangxiang was still a little younger, after all. If Yun Xiangxiang were fully dedicated to academia, Fu Min would not have agreed to be a matchmaker so early on.

Even if Song Mian were not young, she would have waited until Yun Xiangxiang had graduated. If Yun Xiangxiang had not solved her problems by then, she would help Song Mian.

However, even though Yun Xiangxiang was younger, she had already started to be in contact with society. She was even in the most complicated circle.

Yun Xiangxiang was an opinionated girl with a mind of her own. Fu Min agreed after discussing with Hou Chengjue.

“Thank you, madam.” Yun Xiangxiang moved to hug Fu Min, “You are as warm as my mother.”

Fu Min smiled kindly and asked, “What do you think of Little Song?”

Yun Xiangxiang was still a little shy, “He... He is outstanding.”

No one knew better than she did of how good he was.

“If you think that he’s not bad, you can try to date him. There are not many good men. If you’ve met one, you have to try out first to see if he’s what you want. You can separate if you feel that he is not suited for you, then you won’t have any regrets.” Fu Min exhorted.

“Madam, are you this open to Sister Wanjun as well?” Yun Xiangxiang couldn’t help being curious.

“I wish to be this open, but she won’t give me the chance.” Fu Min looked sad when she mentioned her daughter.

Hou Wanjun was the only daughter of her and her husband. She and Hou Chenjue were both high ranking intellectuals from well established scholarly families.

It just happened that she gave birth to a fake girl with a mess of grades. At seventeen, she went to the military academy without telling her family. She almost angered her father to the point of a heart attack.

They were not trying to force their child to take that path, but how difficult it was for a girl to be in a military school. They were not literary soldiers. The more infuriating part was that their child did not trust them and only notified them after she took the examinations.

After graduating from the military academy, she entered the military profession. It was difficult even to see her. She had never dated even when she was twenty-six.

“Good things are worth the wait. You don’t have to worry. Sister Wanjun is brave and easygoing. She will definitely find happiness.” Yun Xiangxiang could only comfort her this way.

“The younger generation will be alright on their own. I am old and do not have the energy to control her. Besides, it is a new era. I can’t use the old way of thinking.” Fu Min was a person in the education department. Of course, she had a better understanding of her daughter than anyone else.

Yun Xiangxiang chatted with Fu Min for a while, then went out and the four of them chatted for a while. It was around eight-thirty in the evening when she stood up to leave.

‘I won’t be sending you off. I don’t feel safe that I let you go home alone. Don’t call your assistant. Let Little Song send you home.” Hou Chengjue sent them off to the underground parking lot at Song Mian’s car.

“Don’t worry, Teacher Hou. I promise that I’ll complete the task.” Song Mian promised.

Yun Xiangxiang smiled shyly and sat into the passenger seat and waved goodbye to the husband and wife.

“If you dare ever to act first and tell me later like this, you’ll see how I deal with you!” Yun Xiangxiang gritted her teeth and said to Song Mian after they left the complex.

Song Mian drove his car but replied with an ambiguous smile and a playful tone, “How do you intend to deal with me, girlfriend?”

“Drive properly!” She rebuked the old hooligan angrily.

“So my girlfriend wants me to drive well...” Song Mian said the word driving very playfully.

Yun Xiangxiang squeezed her fist. If it weren’t because he was driving, she would have pounced over to teach him a lesson!

Secretly taking a glance at Xiangxiang, who was both ashamed and annoyed, Song Mian couldn’t help but curl his lips, “I was wrong. I will accept however my girlfriend intends to punish me.

“Stop ahead. I’ll buy a durian.”

Song Mian fell silent.
